<p>This document is a reference manual for the LLVM assembly language.
|
|
LLVM is an SSA based representation that provides type safety,
|
|
low-level operations, flexibility, and the capability of representing
|
|
'all' high-level languages cleanly. It is the common code
|
|
representation used throughout all phases of the LLVM compilation
|
|
strategy.</p>

|
|
|
<p>The LLVM code representation is designed to be used in three
|
|
different forms: as an in-memory compiler IR, as an on-disk bytecode
|
|
representation (suitable for fast loading by a Just-In-Time compiler),
|
|
and as a human readable assembly language representation. This allows
|
|
LLVM to provide a powerful intermediate representation for efficient
|
|
compiler transformations and analysis, while providing a natural means
|
|
to debug and visualize the transformations. The three different forms
|
|
of LLVM are all equivalent. This document describes the human readable
|
|
representation and notation.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The LLVM representation aims to be a light-weight and low-level
|
|
while being expressive, typed, and extensible at the same time. It
|
|
aims to be a "universal IR" of sorts, by being at a low enough level
|
|
that high-level ideas may be cleanly mapped to it (similar to how
|
|
microprocessors are "universal IR's", allowing many source languages to
|
|
be mapped to them). By providing type information, LLVM can be used as
|
|
the target of optimizations: for example, through pointer analysis, it
|
|
can be proven that a C automatic variable is never accessed outside of
|
|
the current function... allowing it to be promoted to a simple SSA
|
|
value instead of a memory location.</p>

|
|
|
|
<p>It is important to note that this document describes 'well formed'
|
|
LLVM assembly language. There is a difference between what the parser
|
|
accepts and what is considered 'well formed'. For example, the
|
|
following instruction is syntactically okay, but not well formed:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
%x = <a href="#i_add">add</a> int 1, %x
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>...because the definition of <tt>%x</tt> does not dominate all of
|
|
its uses. The LLVM infrastructure provides a verification pass that may
|
|
be used to verify that an LLVM module is well formed. This pass is
|
|
automatically run by the parser after parsing input assembly, and by
|
|
the optimizer before it outputs bytecode. The violations pointed out
|
|
by the verifier pass indicate bugs in transformation passes or input to
|
|
the parser.</p>

<div class="doc_text">
|
|
|
|
<p>LLVM uses three different forms of identifiers, for different
|
|
purposes:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Named values are represented as a string of characters with a '%' prefix.
|
|
For example, %foo, %DivisionByZero, %a.really.long.identifier. The actual
|
|
regular expression used is '<tt>%[a-zA-Z$._][a-zA-Z$._0-9]*</tt>'.
|
|
Identifiers which require other characters in their names can be surrounded
|
|
with quotes. In this way, anything except a <tt>"</tt> character can be used
|
|
in a name.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Unnamed values are represented as an unsigned numeric value with a '%'
|
|
prefix. For example, %12, %2, %44.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Constants, which are described in a <a href="#constants">section about
|
|
constants</a>, below.</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
|
|
<p>LLVM requires that values start with a '%' sign for two reasons: Compilers
|
|
don't need to worry about name clashes with reserved words, and the set of
|
|
reserved words may be expanded in the future without penalty. Additionally,
|
|
unnamed identifiers allow a compiler to quickly come up with a temporary
|
|
variable without having to avoid symbol table conflicts.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Reserved words in LLVM are very similar to reserved words in other
|
|
languages. There are keywords for different opcodes ('<tt><a
|
|
href="#i_add">add</a></tt>', '<tt><a href="#i_cast">cast</a></tt>', '<tt><a
|
|
href="#i_ret">ret</a></tt>', etc...), for primitive type names ('<tt><a
|
|
href="#t_void">void</a></tt>', '<tt><a href="#t_uint">uint</a></tt>', etc...),
|
|
and others. These reserved words cannot conflict with variable names, because
|
|
none of them start with a '%' character.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Here is an example of LLVM code to multiply the integer variable
|
|
'<tt>%X</tt>' by 8:</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The easy way:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
%result = <a href="#i_mul">mul</a> uint %X, 8
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>After strength reduction:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
%result = <a href="#i_shl">shl</a> uint %X, ubyte 3
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>And the hard way:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
<a href="#i_add">add</a> uint %X, %X <i>; yields {uint}:%0</i>
|
|
<a href="#i_add">add</a> uint %0, %0 <i>; yields {uint}:%1</i>
|
|
%result = <a href="#i_add">add</a> uint %1, %1
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>This last way of multiplying <tt>%X</tt> by 8 illustrates several
|
|
important lexical features of LLVM:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
|
|
<li>Comments are delimited with a '<tt>;</tt>' and go until the end of
|
|
line.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Unnamed temporaries are created when the result of a computation is not
|
|
assigned to a named value.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Unnamed temporaries are numbered sequentially</li>
|
|
|
|
</ol>
|
|
|
|
<p>...and it also show a convention that we follow in this document. When
|
|
demonstrating instructions, we will follow an instruction with a comment that
|
|
defines the type and name of value produced. Comments are shown in italic
|
|
text.</p>

|
<p>LLVM programs are composed of "Module"s, each of which is a
|
|
translation unit of the input programs. Each module consists of
|
|
functions, global variables, and symbol table entries. Modules may be
|
|
combined together with the LLVM linker, which merges function (and
|
|
global variable) definitions, resolves forward declarations, and merges
|
|
symbol table entries. Here is an example of the "hello world" module:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre><i>; Declare the string constant as a global constant...</i>
|
|
<a href="#identifiers">%.LC0</a> = <a href="#linkage_internal">internal</a> <a
|
|
href="#globalvars">constant</a> <a href="#t_array">[13 x sbyte]</a> c"hello world\0A\00" <i>; [13 x sbyte]*</i>
|
|
|
|
<i>; External declaration of the puts function</i>
|
|
<a href="#functionstructure">declare</a> int %puts(sbyte*) <i>; int(sbyte*)* </i>
|
|
|
|
<i>; Definition of main function</i>
|
|
int %main() { <i>; int()* </i>
|
|
<i>; Convert [13x sbyte]* to sbyte *...</i>
|
|
%cast210 = <a
|
|
href="#i_getelementptr">getelementptr</a> [13 x sbyte]* %.LC0, long 0, long 0 <i>; sbyte*</i>
|
|
|
|
<i>; Call puts function to write out the string to stdout...</i>
|
|
<a
|
|
href="#i_call">call</a> int %puts(sbyte* %cast210) <i>; int</i>
|
|
<a
|
|
href="#i_ret">ret</a> int 0<br>}<br></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>This example is made up of a <a href="#globalvars">global variable</a>
|
|
named "<tt>.LC0</tt>", an external declaration of the "<tt>puts</tt>"
|
|
function, and a <a href="#functionstructure">function definition</a>
|
|
for "<tt>main</tt>".</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>In general, a module is made up of a list of global values,
|
|
where both functions and global variables are global values. Global values are
|
|
represented by a pointer to a memory location (in this case, a pointer to an
|
|
array of char, and a pointer to a function), and have one of the following <a
|
|
href="#linkage">linkage types</a>.</p>

<dt><tt><b><a name="linkage_internal">internal</a></b></tt> </dt>
|
|

<dd>Global values with internal linkage are only directly accessible by
|
|
objects in the current module. In particular, linking code into a module with
|
|
an internal global value may cause the internal to be renamed as necessary to
|
|
avoid collisions. Because the symbol is internal to the module, all
|
|
references can be updated. This corresponds to the notion of the
|
|
'<tt>static</tt>' keyword in C, or the idea of "anonymous namespaces" in C++.
|

|
|
|
<dt><tt><b><a name="linkage_linkonce">linkonce</a></b></tt>: </dt>
|
|

<dd>"<tt>linkonce</tt>" linkage is similar to <tt>internal</tt> linkage, with
|
|
the twist that linking together two modules defining the same
|
|
<tt>linkonce</tt> globals will cause one of the globals to be discarded. This
|
|
is typically used to implement inline functions. Unreferenced
|
|
<tt>linkonce</tt> globals are allowed to be discarded.

<dd>"<tt>weak</tt>" linkage is exactly the same as <tt>linkonce</tt> linkage,

used to implement constructs in C such as "<tt>int X;</tt>" at global scope.

linked together, the two global arrays are appended together. This is the

|
LLVM, typesafe, equivalent of having the system linker append together

|
"sections" with identical names when .o files are linked.

<dt><tt><b><a name="linkage_external">externally visible</a></b></tt>:</dt>

<dt><b>"<tt>ccc</tt>" - The C calling convention</b>:</dt>
|

<dd>This calling convention (the default if no other calling convention is

|
specified) matches the target C calling conventions. This calling convention
|
|
supports varargs function calls, and tolerates some mismatch in the declared
|
|
prototype and implemented declaration of the function (as does normal C).
|
|
</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt><b>"<tt>fastcc</tt>" - The fast calling convention</b>:</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd>This calling convention attempts to make calls as fast as possible
|
|
(e.g. by passing things in registers). This calling convention allows the
|
|
target to use whatever tricks it wants to produce fast code for the target,
|
|
without having to conform to an externally specified ABI. Implementations of
|
|
this convention should allow arbitrary tail call optimization to be supported.
|
|
This calling convention does not support varargs and requires the prototype of
|
|
all callees to exactly match the prototype of the function definition.
|
|
</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt><b>"<tt>coldcc</tt>" - The cold calling convention</b>:</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd>This calling convention attempts to make code in the caller as efficient
|
|
as possible under the assumption that the call is not commonly executed. As
|
|
such, these calls often preserve all registers so that the call does not break
|
|
any live ranges in the caller side. This calling convention does not support
|
|
varargs and requires the prototype of all callees to exactly match the
|
|
prototype of the function definition.

target-specific calling conventions to be used. Target specific calling

|
|
|
|
<p>Global variables define regions of memory allocated at compilation time
|
|
instead of run-time. Global variables may optionally be initialized. A
|
|
variable may be defined as a global "constant", which indicates that the
|
|
contents of the variable will <b>never</b> be modified (enabling better
|
|
optimization, allowing the global data to be placed in the read-only section of
|
|
an executable, etc). Note that variables that need runtime initialization
|
|
cannot be marked "constant", as there is a store to the variable.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
LLVM explicitly allows <em>declarations</em> of global variables to be marked
|
|
constant, even if the final definition of the global is not. This capability
|
|
can be used to enable slightly better optimization of the program, but requires
|
|
the language definition to guarantee that optimizations based on the
|
|
'constantness' are valid for the translation units that do not include the
|
|
definition.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>As SSA values, global variables define pointer values that are in
|
|
scope (i.e. they dominate) all basic blocks in the program. Global
|
|
variables always define a pointer to their "content" type because they
|
|
describe a region of memory, and all memory objects in LLVM are
|
|
accessed through pointers.</p>

<p>LLVM function definitions consist of an optional <a href="#linkage">linkage

<p>A function definition contains a list of basic blocks, forming the CFG for

with a <a href="#terminators">terminator</a> instruction (such as a branch or

<p>The first basic block in program is special in two ways: it is immediately

executed on entrance to the function, and it is not allowed to have predecessor

basic blocks (i.e. there can not be any branches to the entry block of a

<p>LLVM functions are identified by their name and type signature. Hence, two

<dt><b>Floating point constants</b></dt>

<dd>Floating point constants use standard decimal notation (e.g. 123.421),
|
|
exponential notation (e.g. 1.23421e+2), or a more precise hexadecimal
|
|
notation. Floating point constants have an optional hexadecimal

<p>The one non-intuitive notation for constants is the optional hexadecimal form

of floating point constants. For example, the form '<tt>double

|
0x432ff973cafa8000</tt>' is equivalent to (but harder to read than) '<tt>double
|
|
4.5e+15</tt>'. The only time hexadecimal floating point constants are required
|
|
(and the only time that they are generated by the disassembler) is when a
|
|
floating point constant must be emitted but it cannot be represented as a
|
|
decimal floating point number. For example, NaN's, infinities, and other
|
|
special values are represented in their IEEE hexadecimal format so that
|
|
assembly and disassembly do not cause any bits to change in the constants.</p>

<h5>Syntax:</h5>
|
|
<pre> ret <type> <value> <i>; Return a value from a non-void function</i>
|
|
ret void <i>; Return from void function</i>
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<h5>Overview:</h5>
|
|
<p>The '<tt>ret</tt>' instruction is used to return control flow (and a
|
|
value) from a function, back to the caller.</p>
|
|
<p>There are two forms of the '<tt>ret</tt>' instruction: one that
|
|
returns a value and then causes control flow, and one that just causes
|
|
control flow to occur.</p>
|
|
<h5>Arguments:</h5>
|
|
<p>The '<tt>ret</tt>' instruction may return any '<a
|
|
href="#t_firstclass">first class</a>' type. Notice that a function is
|
|
not <a href="#wellformed">well formed</a> if there exists a '<tt>ret</tt>'
|
|
instruction inside of the function that returns a value that does not
|
|
match the return type of the function.</p>
|
|
<h5>Semantics:</h5>
|
|
<p>When the '<tt>ret</tt>' instruction is executed, control flow
|
|
returns back to the calling function's context. If the caller is a "<a
|
|
href="#i_call"><tt>call</tt></a>" instruction, execution continues at
|
|
the instruction after the call. If the caller was an "<a
|
|
href="#i_invoke"><tt>invoke</tt></a>" instruction, execution continues
|
|
at the beginning "normal" of the destination block. If the instruction
|
|
returns a value, that value shall set the call or invoke instruction's
|
|
return value.</p>
|
|
<h5>Example:</h5>
|
|
<pre> ret int 5 <i>; Return an integer value of 5</i>
|
|
ret void <i>; Return from a void function</i>

<pre> br bool <cond>, label <iftrue>, label <iffalse><br> br label <dest> <i>; Unconditional branch</i>
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<h5>Overview:</h5>
|
|
<p>The '<tt>br</tt>' instruction is used to cause control flow to
|
|
transfer to a different basic block in the current function. There are
|
|
two forms of this instruction, corresponding to a conditional branch
|
|
and an unconditional branch.</p>
|
|
<h5>Arguments:</h5>
|
|
<p>The conditional branch form of the '<tt>br</tt>' instruction takes a
|
|
single '<tt>bool</tt>' value and two '<tt>label</tt>' values. The
|
|
unconditional form of the '<tt>br</tt>' instruction takes a single '<tt>label</tt>'
|
|
value as a target.</p>
|
|
<h5>Semantics:</h5>
|
|
<p>Upon execution of a conditional '<tt>br</tt>' instruction, the '<tt>bool</tt>'
|
|
argument is evaluated. If the value is <tt>true</tt>, control flows
|
|
to the '<tt>iftrue</tt>' <tt>label</tt> argument. If "cond" is <tt>false</tt>,
|
|
control flows to the '<tt>iffalse</tt>' <tt>label</tt> argument.</p>
|

|
|
|
|
<h5>Overview:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>The '<tt>switch</tt>' instruction is used to transfer control flow to one of
|
|
several different places. It is a generalization of the '<tt>br</tt>'
|
|
instruction, allowing a branch to occur to one of many possible
|
|
destinations.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h5>Arguments:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>The '<tt>switch</tt>' instruction uses three parameters: an integer
|
|
comparison value '<tt>value</tt>', a default '<tt>label</tt>' destination, and
|
|
an array of pairs of comparison value constants and '<tt>label</tt>'s. The
|
|
table is not allowed to contain duplicate constant entries.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Semantics:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>The <tt>switch</tt> instruction specifies a table of values and
|
|
destinations. When the '<tt>switch</tt>' instruction is executed, this
|
|
table is searched for the given value. If the value is found, control flow is
|
|
transfered to the corresponding destination; otherwise, control flow is
|
|
transfered to the default destination.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Implementation:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>Depending on properties of the target machine and the particular
|
|
<tt>switch</tt> instruction, this instruction may be code generated in different
|
|
ways. For example, it could be generated as a series of chained conditional
|
|
branches or with a lookup table.</p>

</pre>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Overview:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>The '<tt>invoke</tt>' instruction causes control to transfer to a specified
|
|
function, with the possibility of control flow transfer to either the
|
|
'<tt>normal</tt>' <tt>label</tt> label or the
|
|
'<tt>exception</tt>'<tt>label</tt>. If the callee function returns with the
|
|
"<tt><a href="#i_ret">ret</a></tt>" instruction, control flow will return to the
|
|
"normal" label. If the callee (or any indirect callees) returns with the "<a
|
|
href="#i_unwind"><tt>unwind</tt></a>" instruction, control is interrupted, and
|
|
continued at the dynamically nearest "except" label.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Arguments:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>This instruction requires several arguments:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>The optional "cconv" marker indicates which <a href="callingconv">calling
|
|
convention</a> the call should use. If none is specified, the call defaults
|
|
to using C calling conventions.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>'<tt>ptr to function ty</tt>': shall be the signature of the pointer to
|
|
function value being invoked. In most cases, this is a direct function
|
|
invocation, but indirect <tt>invoke</tt>s are just as possible, branching off
|
|
an arbitrary pointer to function value.
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>'<tt>function ptr val</tt>': An LLVM value containing a pointer to a
|
|
function to be invoked. </li>
|
|
|
|
<li>'<tt>function args</tt>': argument list whose types match the function
|
|
signature argument types. If the function signature indicates the function
|
|
accepts a variable number of arguments, the extra arguments can be
|
|
specified. </li>
|
|
|
|
<li>'<tt>normal label</tt>': the label reached when the called function
|
|
executes a '<tt><a href="#i_ret">ret</a></tt>' instruction. </li>
|
|
|
|
<li>'<tt>exception label</tt>': the label reached when a callee returns with
|
|
the <a href="#i_unwind"><tt>unwind</tt></a> instruction. </li>
|
|
|
|
</ol>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Semantics:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>This instruction is designed to operate as a standard '<tt><a
|
|
href="#i_call">call</a></tt>' instruction in most regards. The primary
|
|
difference is that it establishes an association with a label, which is used by
|
|
the runtime library to unwind the stack.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>This instruction is used in languages with destructors to ensure that proper
|
|
cleanup is performed in the case of either a <tt>longjmp</tt> or a thrown
|
|
exception. Additionally, this is important for implementation of
|
|
'<tt>catch</tt>' clauses in high-level languages that support them.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Example:</h5>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
%retval = invoke int %Test(int 15) to label %Continue
|

except label %TestCleanup <i>; {int}:retval set</i>

<h5>Overview:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>The '<tt>unwind</tt>' instruction unwinds the stack, continuing control flow

at the first callee in the dynamic call stack which used an <a

|
primarily used to implement exception handling.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Semantics:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>The '<tt>unwind</tt>' intrinsic causes execution of the current function to
|
|
immediately halt. The dynamic call stack is then searched for the first <a
|
|
href="#i_invoke"><tt>invoke</tt></a> instruction on the call stack. Once found,
|
|
execution continues at the "exceptional" destination block specified by the
|
|
<tt>invoke</tt> instruction. If there is no <tt>invoke</tt> instruction in the
|
|
dynamic call chain, undefined behavior results.</p>

<pre> <result> = alloca <type>, uint <NumElements> <i>; yields {type*}:result</i>
|
|
<result> = alloca <type> <i>; yields {type*}:result</i>
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<h5>Overview:</h5>
|
|
<p>The '<tt>alloca</tt>' instruction allocates memory on the current
|
|
stack frame of the procedure that is live until the current function
|
|
returns to its caller.</p>
|
|
<h5>Arguments:</h5>
|
|
<p>The '<tt>alloca</tt>' instruction allocates <tt>sizeof(<type>)*NumElements</tt>
|
|
bytes of memory on the runtime stack, returning a pointer of the
|
|
appropriate type to the program. The second form of the instruction is
|
|
a shorter version of the first that defaults to allocating one element.</p>
|
|
<p>'<tt>type</tt>' may be any sized type.</p>
|
|
<h5>Semantics:</h5>
|
|
<p>Memory is allocated, a pointer is returned. '<tt>alloca</tt>'d
|
|
memory is automatically released when the function returns. The '<tt>alloca</tt>'
|
|
instruction is commonly used to represent automatic variables that must
|
|
have an address available. When the function returns (either with the <tt><a
|
|
href="#i_ret">ret</a></tt> or <tt><a href="#i_invoke">invoke</a></tt>
|
|
instructions), the memory is reclaimed.</p>
|
|
<h5>Example:</h5>
|
|
<pre> %ptr = alloca int <i>; yields {int*}:ptr</i>
|
|
%ptr = alloca int, uint 4 <i>; yields {int*}:ptr</i>

|
<p>There are two arguments to the '<tt>store</tt>' instruction: a value

<h5>Overview:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The '<tt>getelementptr</tt>' instruction is used to get the address of a
|
|
subelement of an aggregate data structure.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Arguments:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>This instruction takes a list of integer constants that indicate what
|
|
elements of the aggregate object to index to. The actual types of the arguments
|
|
provided depend on the type of the first pointer argument. The
|
|
'<tt>getelementptr</tt>' instruction is used to index down through the type
|
|
levels of a structure. When indexing into a structure, only <tt>uint</tt>
|
|
integer constants are allowed. When indexing into an array or pointer
|
|
<tt>int</tt> and <tt>long</tt> indexes are allowed of any sign.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>For example, let's consider a C code fragment and how it gets
|
|
compiled to LLVM:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
struct RT {
|
|
char A;
|
|
int B[10][20];
|
|
char C;
|
|
};
|
|
struct ST {
|
|
int X;
|
|
double Y;
|
|
struct RT Z;
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
int *foo(struct ST *s) {
|
|
return &s[1].Z.B[5][13];
|
|
}
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>The LLVM code generated by the GCC frontend is:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
%RT = type { sbyte, [10 x [20 x int]], sbyte }
|
|
%ST = type { int, double, %RT }
|
|
|
|
implementation
|
|
|
|
int* %foo(%ST* %s) {
|
|
entry:
|
|
%reg = getelementptr %ST* %s, int 1, uint 2, uint 1, int 5, int 13
|
|
ret int* %reg
|
|
}
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Semantics:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>The index types specified for the '<tt>getelementptr</tt>' instruction depend
|
|
on the pointer type that is being index into. <a href="#t_pointer">Pointer</a>
|
|
and <a href="#t_array">array</a> types require <tt>uint</tt>, <tt>int</tt>,
|
|
<tt>ulong</tt>, or <tt>long</tt> values, and <a href="#t_struct">structure</a>
|
|
types require <tt>uint</tt> <b>constants</b>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>In the example above, the first index is indexing into the '<tt>%ST*</tt>'
|
|
type, which is a pointer, yielding a '<tt>%ST</tt>' = '<tt>{ int, double, %RT
|
|
}</tt>' type, a structure. The second index indexes into the third element of
|
|
the structure, yielding a '<tt>%RT</tt>' = '<tt>{ sbyte, [10 x [20 x int]],
|
|
sbyte }</tt>' type, another structure. The third index indexes into the second
|
|
element of the structure, yielding a '<tt>[10 x [20 x int]]</tt>' type, an
|
|
array. The two dimensions of the array are subscripted into, yielding an
|
|
'<tt>int</tt>' type. The '<tt>getelementptr</tt>' instruction return a pointer
|
|
to this element, thus computing a value of '<tt>int*</tt>' type.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Note that it is perfectly legal to index partially through a
|
|
structure, returning a pointer to an inner element. Because of this,
|
|
the LLVM code for the given testcase is equivalent to:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
int* %foo(%ST* %s) {
|
|
%t1 = getelementptr %ST* %s, int 1 <i>; yields %ST*:%t1</i>
|
|
%t2 = getelementptr %ST* %t1, int 0, uint 2 <i>; yields %RT*:%t2</i>
|
|
%t3 = getelementptr %RT* %t2, int 0, uint 1 <i>; yields [10 x [20 x int]]*:%t3</i>
|
|
%t4 = getelementptr [10 x [20 x int]]* %t3, int 0, int 5 <i>; yields [20 x int]*:%t4</i>
|
|
%t5 = getelementptr [20 x int]* %t4, int 0, int 13 <i>; yields int*:%t5</i>
|
|
ret int* %t5
|
|
}
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<h5>Example:</h5>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
<i>; yields [12 x ubyte]*:aptr</i>
|
|
%aptr = getelementptr {int, [12 x ubyte]}* %sptr, long 0, uint 1

<p>The '<tt>phi</tt>' instruction is used to implement the φ node in

the SSA graph representing the function.</p>
|
|
<h5>Arguments:</h5>
|
|
<p>The type of the incoming values are specified with the first type
|
|
field. After this, the '<tt>phi</tt>' instruction takes a list of pairs
|
|
as arguments, with one pair for each predecessor basic block of the

|
current block. Only values of <a href="#t_firstclass">first class</a>
|
|
type may be used as the value arguments to the PHI node. Only labels
|
|
may be used as the label arguments.</p>
|
|
<p>There must be no non-phi instructions between the start of a basic

block and the PHI instructions: i.e. PHI instructions must be first in

a basic block.</p>
|

<h5>Semantics:</h5>

<h5>Syntax:</h5>

|
|
<pre>
|
|
<result> = cast <ty> <value> to <ty2> <i>; yields ty2</i>
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Overview:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The '<tt>cast</tt>' instruction is used as the primitive means to convert
|
|
integers to floating point, change data type sizes, and break type safety (by
|
|
casting pointers).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h5>Arguments:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The '<tt>cast</tt>' instruction takes a value to cast, which must be a first
|
|
class value, and a type to cast it to, which must also be a <a
|
|
href="#t_firstclass">first class</a> type.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Semantics:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
This instruction follows the C rules for explicit casts when determining how the
|
|
data being cast must change to fit in its new container.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
When casting to bool, any value that would be considered true in the context of
|
|
a C '<tt>if</tt>' condition is converted to the boolean '<tt>true</tt>' values,
|
|
all else are '<tt>false</tt>'.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
When extending an integral value from a type of one signness to another (for
|
|
example '<tt>sbyte</tt>' to '<tt>ulong</tt>'), the value is sign-extended if the
|
|
<b>source</b> value is signed, and zero-extended if the source value is
|
|
unsigned. <tt>bool</tt> values are always zero extended into either zero or
|
|
one.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Example:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|

%X = cast int 257 to ubyte <i>; yields ubyte:1</i>

|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Overview:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The '<tt>select</tt>' instruction is used to choose one value based on a
|
|
condition, without branching.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h5>Arguments:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The '<tt>select</tt>' instruction requires a boolean value indicating the condition, and two values of the same <a href="#t_firstclass">first class</a> type.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Semantics:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If the boolean condition evaluates to true, the instruction returns the first
|
|
value argument, otherwise it returns the second value argument.

<h5>Overview:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>The '<tt>call</tt>' instruction represents a simple function call.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Arguments:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>This instruction requires several arguments:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>The optional "tail" marker indicates whether the callee function accesses
|
|
any allocas or varargs in the caller. If the "tail" marker is present, the
|
|
function call is eligible for tail call optimization. Note that calls may
|
|
be marked "tail" even if they do not occur before a <a
|
|
href="#i_ret"><tt>ret</tt></a> instruction.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>The optional "cconv" marker indicates which <a href="callingconv">calling
|
|
convention</a> the call should use. If none is specified, the call defaults
|
|
to using C calling conventions.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>'<tt>ty</tt>': shall be the signature of the pointer to function value
|
|
being invoked. The argument types must match the types implied by this
|
|
signature.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>'<tt>fnptrval</tt>': An LLVM value containing a pointer to a function to
|
|
be invoked. In most cases, this is a direct function invocation, but
|
|
indirect <tt>call</tt>s are just as possible, calling an arbitrary pointer
|
|
to function values.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>'<tt>function args</tt>': argument list whose types match the
|
|
function signature argument types. All arguments must be of
|
|
<a href="#t_firstclass">first class</a> type. If the function signature
|
|
indicates the function accepts a variable number of arguments, the extra
|
|
arguments can be specified.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Semantics:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>The '<tt>call</tt>' instruction is used to cause control flow to
|
|
transfer to a specified function, with its incoming arguments bound to
|
|
the specified values. Upon a '<tt><a href="#i_ret">ret</a></tt>'
|
|
instruction in the called function, control flow continues with the
|
|
instruction after the function call, and the return value of the
|
|
function is bound to the result argument. This is a simpler case of
|
|
the <a href="#i_invoke">invoke</a> instruction.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Example:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
%retval = call int %test(int %argc)
|
|
call int(sbyte*, ...) *%printf(sbyte* %msg, int 12, sbyte 42);

<h5>Overview:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>The '<tt>vanext</tt>' instruction is used to access arguments passed

through the "variable argument" area of a function call. It is used to
|
|
implement the <tt>va_arg</tt> macro in C.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Arguments:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>This instruction takes a <tt>va_list</tt> value and the type of the
|
|
argument. It returns another <tt>va_list</tt>. The actual type of
|
|
<tt>va_list</tt> may be defined differently for different targets. Most targets
|
|
use a <tt>va_list</tt> type of <tt>sbyte*</tt> or some other pointer type.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Semantics:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>The '<tt>vanext</tt>' instruction advances the specified <tt>va_list</tt>
|
|
past an argument of the specified type. In conjunction with the <a
|
|
href="#i_vaarg"><tt>vaarg</tt></a> instruction, it is used to implement
|
|
the <tt>va_arg</tt> macro available in C. For more information, see
|
|
the variable argument handling <a href="#int_varargs">Intrinsic
|
|
Functions</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>It is legal for this instruction to be called in a function which
|
|
does not take a variable number of arguments, for example, the <tt>vfprintf</tt>
|
|
function.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><tt>vanext</tt> is an LLVM instruction instead of an <a
|
|
href="#intrinsics">intrinsic function</a> because it takes a type as an
|
|
argument. The type refers to the current argument in the <tt>va_list</tt>, it
|
|
tells the compiler how far on the stack it needs to advance to find the next
|
|
argument</p>

<p>The '<tt>vaarg</tt>' instruction loads an argument of the specified type from
|
|
the specified <tt>va_list</tt>. In conjunction with the <a
|
|
href="#i_vanext"><tt>vanext</tt></a> instruction, it is used to implement the
|
|
<tt>va_arg</tt> macro available in C. For more information, see the variable
|
|
argument handling <a href="#int_varargs">Intrinsic Functions</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>It is legal for this instruction to be called in a function which does not
|
|
take a variable number of arguments, for example, the <tt>vfprintf</tt>
|
|
function.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><tt>vaarg</tt> is an LLVM instruction instead of an <a

argument.</p>

|
<p>LLVM supports the notion of an "intrinsic function". These functions have
|
|
well known names and semantics, and are required to follow certain
|
|
restrictions. Overall, these instructions represent an extension mechanism for
|
|
the LLVM language that does not require changing all of the transformations in
|
|
LLVM to add to the language (or the bytecode reader/writer, the parser,
|
|
etc...).</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Intrinsic function names must all start with an "<tt>llvm.</tt>" prefix, this
|
|
prefix is reserved in LLVM for intrinsic names, thus functions may not be named
|
|
this. Intrinsic functions must always be external functions: you cannot define
|
|
the body of intrinsic functions. Intrinsic functions may only be used in call
|
|
or invoke instructions: it is illegal to take the address of an intrinsic
|
|
function. Additionally, because intrinsic functions are part of the LLVM
|
|
language, it is required that they all be documented here if any are added.</p>

<p>Variable argument support is defined in LLVM with the <a

<p>All of these functions operate on arguments that use a

The '<tt>llvm.pcmarker</tt>' intrinsic is a method to export a PC in a region of

|
The marker makes no guaranties that it will remain with any specific instruction

after optimizations. It is possible that the presense of a marker will inhibit
|
|
optimizations. The intended use is to be inserted after optmizations to allow
|

corrolations of simulation runs.

<h5>Overview:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The '<tt>llvm.writeport</tt>' intrinsic writes data to the specified hardware
|
|
I/O port.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Arguments:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The first argument is the value to write to the I/O port.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The second argument indicates the hardware I/O address to which data should be
|
|
written. The address is in the hardware I/O address namespace (as opposed to
|
|
being a memory location for memory mapped I/O).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Semantics:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The '<tt>llvm.writeport</tt>' intrinsic writes <i>value</i> to the I/O port
|
|
specified by <i>address</i>. The address and value must be integers, but the
|
|
size is dependent upon the platform upon which the program is code generated.
|
|
For example, on x86, the address must be an unsigned 16-bit value, and the
|
|
value written must be 8, 16, or 32 bits in length.

The '<tt>llvm.readio</tt>' intrinsic reads data from a memory mapped I/O
|

address.
|

</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Arguments:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The argument to this intrinsic is a pointer indicating the memory address from
|
|
which to read the data. The data must be a
|
|
<a href="#t_firstclass">first class</a> type.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h5>Semantics:</h5>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The '<tt>llvm.readio</tt>' intrinsic reads data from a memory mapped I/O
|
|
location specified by <i>pointer</i> and returns the value. The argument must
|
|
be a pointer, and the return value must be a
|
|
<a href="#t_firstclass">first class</a> type. However, certain architectures
|
|
may not support I/O on all first class types. For example, 32-bit processors
|
|
may only support I/O on data types that are 32 bits or less.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
This intrinsic enforces an in-order memory model for llvm.readio and
|
|
llvm.writeio calls on machines that use dynamic scheduling. Dynamically
|
|
scheduled processors may execute loads and stores out of order, re-ordering at
|
|
run time accesses to memory mapped I/O registers. Using these intrinsics
|
|
ensures that accesses to memory mapped I/O registers occur in program order.

<h5>Arguments:</h5>
|
